Jamison is one of the better 4s in the league offensively. He can score off the dribble drive, he has a post game, he can hit 3s, and he can hit from midrange.

JJ Hickson can ONLY dunk. All of his points either come from cuts to the rim or put backs. Hickson trying to create his own shot is a huge failure. They are really nothing alike

This isn't the same Antawn Jamison you remember at UNC 12 years ago.

unless Jamison has all of a sudden become a 3 pt specialist which I seriously doubt then yeah I'm serious, he may have developed a decent shot from outside because I haven't been following the Wizards, but what I was refering to was in terms of crashing the boards, slashing to the rims for dunks. Hickson has been on a tear this year, so I don't see why they needed Jamison, a bad trade IMO.


Let me know when you watch your first NBA game.

so that qualifies him as a 3pt shooter Like I said, he has a decent shot from outside I have seen him shoot, but I don't think Cleveland got him for that. I think got him more for rebounding, and slashing to rim off picks and feeding off Lebron for dunks, all of which Hickson is presently doing. You just traded away a big man that was in good rotation with Shaq because Sahg stays in foul trouble, but the main thing is you just got smaller against the Lakers length, but whatever.

it's been one fricking game, holy shite. Jamison is going to win some games for the Cavs come playoff time. Give the guy a break.

You do realize that Z will probably be back in Cleveland in about 28 days, right?

well if that is true, then that makes sense, no, I didn't know that. I know Hickson is not a shooter, but I was more referrin to the rebounding, and inside game.

You're a moron, they got Jamison to spread the floor not to clog the lane more.

So let me get this straight. You don't like a trade where Cleveland got a 20ppg and 9 rpg player for their backup center (who they will get back next month)? Jamison has NEVER been a headcase. Cleveland STILL has Hickson as the starting PF. They basically added Jamison for a draft pick. The guy is the exact opposite of Hickson so he will provide a nice spark and change of pace off the bench. He is a really good 3 pt shooter, can stretch the defense, and will open up things for Lebron on the interior.
What exactly is there not to like about this trade?

they got him cause the team overall needs a true #2 scorer



as far as spreading the floor, Cleveland is already the best 3 pt shooting team in the league
